Long Overdue Turns Two

It’s been two
wonderful years since Long Overdue first came out, fulfilling my lifelong dream
of becoming a published author.

To celebrate,
I am giving away a $25 Amazon gift card!

First, a
little bit about Long Overdue…

Blurb:

Jill Malone has been looking for love for all the wrong reasons. A
reality check has her signing up for a no-strings attached night to simply
forget about forever after. The last thing she expected was to know her
blind date.

Blake Anders doesn’t need help finding a date, but he’s tempted by 1Night
Stand’s reputation of arranging exactly what a person needs. And he needs more.
Though doubtful, he agrees to one night and hopes to discover his perfect
match. He didn’t count on Madame Eve reaching deep into his past to give
him a night with the woman he never forgot.

Fearing another broken heart, Jill works to keep herself from becoming
attached, but Blake goes all in to convince her that he wants their
long-overdue love to be more than a one-night stand…

Excerpt:

“I
think there’s been some sort of mistake,” she managed.

“But,
we’re here. And I don’t think it’s a mistake.”

Of
course, he’d be polite, while wondering what happened to the size zero, with
extra-large breasts, he ordered. “I don’t know.” She shook her head and swore
disappointment flashed across his face. “I’ll be honest; I am not comfortable.”

“And
let me be honest. I’m looking forward to an evening with you.” Ooooh, smooth. Then
again, she didn’t expect less, given his tabloid reputation. Still, her legs
felt a little less stable.

She
faced him. What really went on in his head? “You don’t find it strange that you
know me?”

His
killer smile set off butterflies in her belly and a warning bell in her mind.
“No. In fact, it makes sense.”

“Why is
that?”

“Because
I used to wonder about you.A lot.”

Jill
forgot to breathe. Forgot almost everything. Did he
say…?

“Didn’t
you ever wonder about me?”

Jill
exhaled. “I’m taking the Fifth.” His smile grew. She shook her head, recognizing
dangerous territory. “I’m still not sure.” Not sure she’d measured up. Not sure
she’d survive with her heart intact.

“Stay
for a drink.”

She
wavered at his low-voiced offer. Dammit, he’d become even more handsome than
she remembered.
